The City Council passed a resolution to amend the Alcohol Permission Area Map, removing the historic core of the Chinatown and Victor Heights neighborhoods from the Downtown Community Plan. This amendment was made to correct an error from the initial inclusion of these areas as part of the Downtown Community Plan Update (Council file No. 22-0617). The affected neighborhoods will no longer be part of the Alcohol Permission Area, ensuring that the inclusion is in line with local zoning codes and regulations. This decision was made following consultations as outlined by Los Angeles Municipal Code Section 1.5.9.C, which governs the Alcohol Permission Area Map Amendments.
This decision ensures the zoning map accurately reflects the intended boundaries of the Alcohol Permission Area. It is a crucial step in maintaining consistency in the city's zoning and land use regulations, particularly for alcohol-related businesses.
